99 Chapter 99: Making Huo Wu Bleed
Su Wen's face also turned serious, preparing to fully respond to Huo Wu's strongest attack.
The combined power of three Spirit Elders, plus the assistance of the Ring Merging Talent, unleashed the terrifying Spiral Flame, erupting with Soul Power from their entire bodies.
The rotating flames carried a powerful cohesion, as a terrifying explosive wave of flames headed towards Su Wen.
This was Huo Wu's Second Spirit Skill, Spiral Flame.
It was a single-target strong attack Spirit Skill, but unfortunately, it was easily evaded if the distance was too far.
Her main responsibility was still to use her Third Spirit Skill for control.
To compensate for the lack of attack power, she needed to obtain a strong attack Spirit Skill with tracking capabilities in the fourth ring, so that she, along with the two Fire Star Spirit Masters and her Ring Merging Talent, could achieve their maximum potential.
Ring Merging allows the instant eruption of Soul Power from all Spirit Rings when casting Spirit Skills, using this erupted Soul Power to execute one of the Spirit Skills.
There is no doubt that Huo Wu's development direction is to complement her own talent.
Boom!
The Spiral Flame bullet flew at high speed, but Su Wen showed no intention of dodging.
Huo Wu's earlier provocation of Su Wen was aimed at making Su Wen try to directly withstand this Spiral Flame bullet.
Rocks transformed from pages flew around Su Wen, with no sense of clumsiness but rather remarkable agility. They arranged themselves in front of Su Wen, forming a huge rock formation.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A sandy-yellow light shield formed, colliding with the Spiral Flame bullet.
The force of the explosion fell upon the shield, causing many rocks forming the formation to shatter.
The rocks didn't completely break, and the shield, though tottering, did not shatter.
They forcefully withstood the impact!
!
Huo Wu couldn't believe it.
However, Su Wen didn't stop there.
His goal was to replicate the Martial Spirit. After being blasted by Huo Wu's attack, he couldn't just stand by.
Beneath his feet, a massive airflow burst open, propelling his body forward rapidly. The surrounding air separated under his control, reducing the resistance to his advance.
Su Wen swiftly rushed into the midst of the Blazing Team's six members. In his right hand, he condensed a Rasenshuriken and hurled it towards the rising Huo Wushuang.
As the Rasenshuriken was released, Su Wen accelerated for the second time, swiftly arriving in front of Huo Wu. A high-speed flow of air formed a green Wind Blade above his left hand.
Puchi!
The Wind Blade stabbed into Huo Wu's body, and drops of blood dripped onto the arena floor.
Su Wen didn't penetrate completely through his opponent; he just inserted the Wind Blade a bit, drawing blood, but achieving his objective.
So fast!
Just now, Su Wen had instantly appeared in front of Huo Wu.
Even faster than his first acceleration.
Huo Wu's gaze was blank, feeling the pain below, finding it somewhat unbelievable.
She wanted to resist too, but she based her resistance on the time of Su Wen's first acceleration as much as possible.
However, Su Wen was faster. He abruptly appeared in front of her and thrust his left hand, now a Wind Blade, in a crude manner.
"Referee, we concede!" Huo Wushuang, seeing his sister injured by the Wind Blade and realizing that even Huo Wu's strongest outburst couldn't affect Su Wen, immediately conceded. He came to Huo Wu's side promptly and pushed Su Wen away.
As the Wind Blade was pulled out, it brought out more blood.
Huo Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief. The Wind Blade wasn't long, and the entry was also brief, so the injury wasn't too severe.
"You're better," Su Wen said.
Huo Wushuang took a deep breath, calmed down, and didn't lash out at Su Wen.
Even though fire attribute Spirit Masters have a volatile temper, in that moment, he understood that Su Wen had held back.
This slash seems to be a kind of judgment: you've lost.
Huo Wushuang didn't believe that Su Wen's Wind Blade could only be so short.
"Thanks for going easy on us," Huo Wushuang said.
"It's just a match, it's what should be done," Su Wen replied, taking Ning Rongrong and leaving the arena.
In the spectator area, Qin Ming frowned as he contemplated Su Wen's resistance against Huo Wu's outburst just now.
"Is it a self-created Spirit Skill?"
There's no doubt that the rock formation Su Wen displayed was completely different from the effects of his advertised Third Spirit Skill. It wasn't a control-type Spirit Skill anymore but a defensive Spirit Skill.
Although Qin Ming had known for a while that Su Wen might develop a defensive self-created Spirit Skill after obtaining Earth Element Control, he never thought it would happen so quickly.
Moreover, it seemed to integrate the characteristics of the Third Spirit Skill, using combination techniques to strengthen defense.
The level of defense just now has surpassed that of the Shi Mo brothers.
At this moment, Qin Ming began to doubt his own understanding. Could there really be such versatile and exceptional Spirit Masters on the Continent, excelling in every aspect?
In this battle, Su Wen replicated three Martial Spirits, including Huo Wushuang's One-Horned Tyrant Dragon, Huo Wu's Fire Shadow, and the auxiliary Fire Star Martial Spirit.
"The Fire Star Martial Spirit itself is quite useful to me. It provides significant assistance in further developing my fire attribute formations," Su Wen reflected.
Previously, the Blazing Body he replicated had some effect on his training, and now the Fire Star Martial Spirit proves beneficial for Su Wen in developing his fire attributes.
It has to be said that this Spirit Fighter experience holds significant meaning for Su Wen. It marks his first confrontation with the outstanding Spirit Masters on the Continent and serves as a reference for their Martial Spirits, Spirit Skills, and combat styles.
"The value of both the One-Horned Tyrant Dragon and Fire Shadow Martial Spirits remains to be developed," Su Wen felt he needed to digest his gains properly.
He had already replicated many.
Now, it can be said that maintaining the replication of two top-tier Martial Spirits and three advanced Martial Spirits consumes Soul Power noticeably all the time.
So, he approached Qin Ming.
"Teacher Qin Ming, I would like to request some time off from the team to digest the gains of these past few days."
Qin Ming understood Su Wen's words but didn't comprehend fully.
"You have gains?"
Qin Ming expressed that during the three days of observation, Su Wen had won effortlessly every time and had not sustained any injuries.
However, Su Wen has always been reliable, and Qin Ming didn't think he was slacking off. After some thought, he nodded in agreement to Su Wen's request.
Su Wen returned to the resting room, first sensing the abilities and characteristics of the three Martial Spirits he replicated today.
An hour later.
Having roughly understood their characteristics, he began to contemplate where he could digest his insights in the following days.
"Practice brings true knowledge; relying solely on imagination makes it difficult to develop anything of value."
Su Wen needed a place where he could fully unleash his potential to try out the many Martial Spirits he had replicated, make selections, eliminate unnecessary burdens, and further develop his fourth Spirit Skill.
While Su Wen was in distress, Qin Ming approached him.
"Xiaowen, are you going to develop Spirit Skills next?" Qin Ming asked.
Su Wen nodded, saying, "Yes."
"Just now, the leader of the Blazing Team and I had a chat. He wants to invite you to the Blazing Academy for exchange," Qin Ming said.
Exchange?
No, Su Wen didn't even have to think twice before refusing.
Isn't it more enjoyable to stay at the Great Spirit Arena where there are still fights to be had?
How many Spirit Elders and Spirit Ancestors are there in the Blazing Academy?
"The fire training facilities at the Blazing Academy are the best on the entire continent. They create these fiery environments not only as training grounds for students but also as places to practice Spirit Skills."
Oh?
Well, that's worth checking out.
